The Roman Baths, UK

In 2003, we visited the Roman baths at Bath (duh!), UK. Here's the bird's eye view. Zoom in and you can see the water.

Bath is a nice town with shopping and restaurants very near the historic sites. Here's the web site for the baths and here's the wikipedia article. Here's my picture of the baths proper.

In the immediate area is the Bath Abbey. Here's the web site for the abbey and here's the wikipedia article. Here's my picture of the abbey.

I'm trying something different. Here's a link to the FlashEarth map. You'll notice that you can readily switch between Google Maps or Windows Live Local images. Google has really improved their images since I originally created this entry in October 2006.

Stonehenge, UK

Just down the road from Avebury is Stonehenge. Given that it's so well known that there's even a Windows XP wallpaper of it I guess I don't need to say much. I just had to take my own photo of it. Here's their website and here's the wikipedia article.
